Why Choose The Lakes at Gig Harbor?

LINK: The Lakes at Gig Harbor stands out as one of the Pacific Northwest's top 55+ active-adult communities. Unlike traditional neighborhood developments, The Lakes combines a quiet, park-like environment with unmatched proximity to essential city amenities.

Neighborhood Highlights & Community Amenities

  • Gated Security & Peaceful Setting: Private, gated entryways ensure a quiet, peaceful neighborhood environment.

  • Active Social Lifestyle: Features a private community clubhouse, BBQ and picnic areas, lawn games, and walking trails woven throughout scenic lakes and greenbelt surroundings.

  • Unbeatable Gig Harbor North Location: Located just three miles from major everyday conveniences, including Costco, Target, Home Depot, Safeway, and the YMCA.

  • World-Class Healthcare Nearby: Situated less than 3 miles from St. Anthony’s Hospital (CHI Franciscan) and MultiCare’s Gig Harbor Medical Park, with Gig Harbor Fire Station 56 right around the corner.

Retirement in Gig Harbor: Low-Maintenance "Lock & Leave" Living

Gig Harbor is consistently ranked among the best places to retire in Washington state due to its stunning maritime waterfront, active maritime culture, golf courses, and rich arts scene.

For many active adults, transitioning into a single-level home in a hybrid/leased-land 55+ community offers the ultimate "Lock and Leave" lifestyle—freeing up equity and reducing outdoor upkeep so you can spend more time traveling, golfing at Canterwood, or boating on Puget Sound.

Key Reasons Manufactured Homes in 55+ Communities Are Winning Buyers Over

  1. Price Accessibility: Gain full access to Gig Harbor’s high quality of life at a fraction of the cost of traditional fee-simple site-built homes.

  2. Predictable Living: Enjoy low-maintenance landscaping and community upkeep covered through the community framework.

  3. Strong Camaraderie: Live alongside neighbors at a similar stage of life who prioritize safety, quiet, and genuine community engagement.

When searching for 55+ retirement communities in Gig Harbor, WA, many buyers miss out on one of the area’s best-kept secrets. Because manufactured homes in leased-land communities are categorized differently in standard real estate databases, exceptional homes in top-tier neighborhood enclaves often don't appear in default online property searches.

Schedule a Private Showing

Because properties like Unit 22 at The Lakes don't always surface on mainstream real estate search portals, contacting a local agent directly is the best way to tour this neighborhood.
